Baduist Monk

Description
Sorta over-stimulated right now... I had a bunch of half-done sketches and this was the product of one of them... The ever-so-lovely Erykah Badu in a sorta goddess-type state (she already sorta is, but I just exaggerated on it a little bit).

I found a pic on her myspace page that I dug, and I drew it out on paper first to get a feel for what I wanted to do and then just re-drew it in Illustrator alongside the pic.

Joe, Another very cool piece! The ovals making the hair is very simple, yet works quite well and gives it a groovy 60's feel. 1 February 2008 - 11:36: Joe(y) (sketchyatbest) replied... Thanks dude... Yeah that was sorta the vibe I was looking for... 60's-70's. 1 February 2008 - 14:31: voodoodog replied... You pretty much nailed it. Good job!

Yeah the likeness isn't completely there. I wanted to get a little cartoonish and abstract with it.
